We have to compare the fractions 2/7 & 5/6. For that denominator should be same. So we have to take L.C.M. of 7 & 6.
LCM is 42. 42 goes 6 times in 7 and 7 times in 6. So multiply 2/7 with 6/6 & 5/6 with 7/7.
Then the new fractions will be 12/42 & 35/42. Denominators are same. So compare numerators.
12 is lesser. So ramesh solved lesser
